Giant Mixed Fruit Pie!

Colorful and sweet!​

  This is the perfect pie to bake whenever you are expecting a crowd! It is filled with a combination of apples, pears, blueberries, cherries, and cranberries. Feel free to use whatever fruit you have available! :)
​

A double batch of pie crust was needed to fill my baking pan! Here's the link to my pie crust recipe.

I tossed the fruit filling with a bit of brown sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, and orange zest! 

A crumb topping works great for a pie this large!

Ready to serve a crowd! :)

Giant Mixed Fruit Pie!

Filling Ingredients:
 4 to 5 cups       mixed fruit (your choice)
 1 cup                 brown sugar
​ 1 to 2 Tbsp       tapioca starch
 2 Tbsp               cinnamon
 2 tsp                  cardamom
                            Zest of orange or lemon or both
Crumble Topping:
 1 cup                 chilled butter
 1 cup                 brown sugar
 1 cup                 flour
 1/2 cup             oatmeal
 1 Tbsp              cinnamon

 2                        prepared pie crusts combined  Here's a link to my recipe

Crumble Topping Directions:
 Place all of the crumble ingredients in your stand mixer bowl.
 Using the paddle attachment, mix on high speed until everything combines. Be careful not to over-mix.
​*You can also prepare the crumb topping by hand using a pastry blender.

Directions:
 Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
 Prepare the pie crust in a large baking pan. I used a 15x10 inch baking pan here, but use whatever you've got.
 Place the fruit and all the other filling ingredients in a large bowl and blend well.
 Pour the filling ingredients into your giant prepared crust.
 Top with a crumble topping.

 Bake at 325 for about 1 hour or until everything is bubbling all over. The larger pan may require a bit more time, just   keep an eye on it. 
​ Enjoy :)
